A few questions about AC, Stereo and Spedo

ac- So i noticed yesterday that when i turn on my AC, my idle drops and can hear the ac kick on, but i feel no air blowing..then i move the dial up to II and higher and then i feel some air. Is it something electrical (dirty switch_?

Stereo- I cant connect my amp because all i get is engine noise. I am using 4 gauge wiring and grounding it between the truck and the seatbelt bolt. any ideas...I disconnected the amp, and im still getting engine noise w/out the amp.
I am using good quality RCA's and a pioneer deck (new model)

SUB Measurement. I searched through the site and saw a few post that people showed their sub set up but could not find any measurements.
Im trying to at least get a 10" behind the seat. Been a king cab..its freaking hard. any ideas?

Spedo- is it possible to put a spedo with rev counter in my 87 truck.

Thanks for the help

ok yeah this is what you do

take the end of your rca's at the back of the radio and strip on side dont mater what one if you wanna do both them do both now take the out side of the rca the bare wire (dont mess with the inside dont need to) and wrap a wire around it tape it off take tat wire and ground it now you should not have any more engine nose right if you do then call me man ill walk you though it step by step and answer any questions about car audio i used to do it for a living for many many years im 23 ive done it for 10 years!

as for the box ha ha i go0t two trens to hit a 150db(mtx 4000 w/500 watts) behind the seat of a reg s-10 yreah thats goes seat back wall you just have to move the seat up about 4 inches and biuld it to fit!

for the ac does it do it whit the heater on to or just on ac?


speedo with a rev counter? i dont get it you wanna add a sr5 cluster to your rig so you have the tach? yes you can it just a plug AND PLAY

YOU MUST REPLACE THE OIL SENDER TO A OIL PRESSURE SENDER FROM A SR5!

On the AC fan speed issue, there's a resistor type thingy on the fan motor housing that controls the fan speed. It's located at the base of the housing, near where the motor brushes are. It has different sized coils on it that will burn out after time. I kept losing high fan speeds till it just quit. Finally figured it out and replaced it at the stealership: $15.00.
